a special oregon beer

Pure Water Brew: It’s not special because it’s particularly tasty (although it is) or because it was made by exceptionally talented people (although it was). This beer is special because it’s brewed from water that was recently sewage. We call this beer "Pure Water Brew" because the water used to make it showcases cutting edge water purification technologies. When it went into the brew kettle, this water was some of the most pure on the planet. It just goes to show: No matter where it comes from, we should be judging our H2O by its quality, not by its history.
